The Fifth Edition of Products Liability and Safety has been updated, and includes prominent new cases included on such topics as warning, design, causation, federal preemption, and toxic substances. Daubert issues and the Products Liability Restatement have been integrated throughout. Explanatory materials designed for law study accompany the cases.
The cases included in this textbook are filled with dispassionate, judicial descriptions of horrific accidents:
E.g.,
"Immediately following plaintiff's contact with the dashboard, he realized that his right eye had been injured, as it was paining him and blood and liquid was emerging therefrom."
"Plaintiff heard a whooosh, had a sense of time being elongated, felt searing heat and saw the skin peeling from his body."
